Renée Yoxon, communications director for the fest, says IMOO strives to include people from all backgrounds.

"Since our music is on the fringe, we tend to attract a very diverse crowd,” Yoxon says. “Our organizing members and invited performers are all strong allies, and we are an LGBTQ-friendly organization."

IMOO nights are usually held biweekly on the first and third Sundays of the month at Umi Café.

Tickets range from $15 for a one-day pass to $100, which gets the buyer a compilation CD and T-shirt. Organizers are also accepting $250 and $500 donations, which come with many more perks.
